    Your tags are stored by default in the catalog database only. It's up to you to 'write keywords to files' if you want. In that case, you retrieve your tags when re-importing.

    What is important in your case (switching computers) is to use the right process:

    Move Elements Organizer catalog

    Simply re-importing files is never a good solution. Even if you retrieve keywords, you don't retrieve albums, stacks, version sets, projects, the hierarchical structure of you keywords.

    With photo's imported on the new pc Elements 18 still doesn't load the metatags from Windows. Can it be that another Abode app is causing this?
